In
celebration of the 20th year anniversary of their 1990 debut multi
platinum release “Shake Your Money Maker,” The Black Crowes will release their first ever
double album of all acoustic material on August 3, 2010.
After touring
in 2009, The Black Crowes spent time at the Sunset Sound Studios in Los Angeles, recording over
20 songs from their 20 year history. The
band arranged acoustic versions of many of their best loved songs and the
band’s catalogue picks.
The double
album, Croweology,
will be sold at the cost of a single album as a “Thank You” to their fans for 20 years of support. Also to be released on vinyl, the project was produced by Paul Stacey and will be released
on The Black Crowes label, Silver Arrow, through Megaforce
Records.
In late
summer, The Black Crowes will kick off their “Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys” 2010
Tour which will feature three hour performance sets in most markets. The shows
are being billed as “Acoustic Hor D’oeuvres followed
by an Electric Reception With The Black Crowes,” and will consist of a full
hour and a half acoustic set followed by a full hour and a half electric set,
except where noted below *.
The tour
will begin on August 13 in Milwaukee and is
presently scheduled to conclude with the band’s annual multi-night stand at the
Fillmore in San Francisco
on December 19, 2010.
Following
their 2010 “Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys” Tour the band has planned a lengthy
hiatus.
Chris
Robinson had this to say, “With a smile
so wide you can count my teeth and with a heart so full of love that it is
spilling over the rim, I offer a humble and simple thank you. Thank you
for your time, your imaginations, your heartaches and joy. Thank you for
20 years of cosmic rock n roll. 20 years of keeping it weird. 20 years of
chasing horizons and before the band that dares dream out loud puts it down for
a while, we are proud to give you our Croweology.
This year the music is only for you as we celebrate what has been, what is now
and whatever will be”.
Rich Robinson said, “At this milestone in our career, I feel very fortunate that I have had
the opportunity to spend my life making music.
It’s been 20 years since we started out on this journey. I would like to extend my deep gratitude to
all of our fans who have been there with us along the way. We would not have
gotten here without your support. Every night I stand on the stage I feel great
pride and respect for what we share with our fans. After this tour we are going
to take some much needed time to spend with our families. But for now, we
are very much looking forward to a great year of touring. I look forward
to seeing all your familiar faces again on the road. See you soon.”
Steve Gorman added, “20 Years Gone - To look back over the past
twenty years …there are so many thoughts, feelings, and memories of all shapes
and sizes that it's tough to process it all. Lots of
ups and downs, lots of everything. One can easily get lost in the
labyrinth of those many experiences. However, there is one constant - and that's
an overwhelming sense of gratitude to all of you that have supported us for the
past twenty years. Our tour this year serves as a very large THANK YOU to all
in attendance. Whether you have seen us one time, ten times, a hundred
times, or more, it goes without saying that we wouldn't be here without
you. The lives that we all lead, and the opportunities that we have been
presented with, all trace directly back to your support. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! And after this tour, we'll be taking a nice, long, much needed break. We are all in agreement (no, seriously, we are!) that this is the right time to spend time with our families,
friends, outside musical and non musical projects and of course, our
personal lives. So, we're going out swinging with all we got. Let's all join
hands and share the ride!”
